  In a recent interview Shaun Stenning was asked what he felt was most important during the COVID 19 Pandemic and his answer were surprising to the interviewer.   Shaun replied “ Family is the most important thing during COVID 19 .   With so much disruption to our lives, we need to bind together as a family and support each other.” The concept of family has evolved over time.   The traditional family unit was a wife and husband, kids, grandparents, and cousins.   But for people who choose to live as ex-pats in alternate countries this traditional family unit may not be available. Shaun is one of those people, when Shaun Stenning was asked how we defined his family the unit he replied with “Anyone who has influenced my life and come together with me during this difficult time and are in close proximity to me.   With the closure of international borders flying to see the family is almost impossible.   So we must make the people around us inclusive i...

Shaun Stenning has been married twice.  His first marriage was at a young age to a Bathurst, NSW, Australia girl by the name of Stephanie Jakobi.  Stephanie is the daughter of wealth coach Hans Jakoni and Shaun Stenning and Stephanie met while Shaun was working as a consultant to Hans Jakobi and his online wealth coaching product business.  This was a short-lived marriage.  When the fall out from the Internet Marketing Business that Shaun sold out of failed the marriage fell apart.  Some conspiracy theorists online say the Divorce was part of a way of separating Shaun Stenning and Stephanie from the legal ramifications of the failed business.  The reality is simpler.  Shaun Stenning was heading down a path that was not in line with the one that Stephanie headed down and despite having a daughter together they split up.  Shaun Stenning is now married to a local Thailand Girl and has a son called Lucus and a Step Daughter called Sunwa.  They...

As an investor in Tourism and Hospitality businesses the COVID 19 Pandemic has had a dramatic effect on a number of the businesses that I have invested in and actively work to advise and manage.   The COVID 19 Pandemic has seen a massive reduction in the demand for tourism with many businesses that rely on the movement and cashflow of international and domestic tourism needing to make drastic changes to survive, and in some cases tourism businesses have not been able to survive. For example Virgin Australia one of the leading airline brands in Australia entered Administration early into the COVID 19 Pandemic citing cash flow issues, and inability to repay loans.   Due to a responsive board and fast movement VirginAustralia was able to secure a sale that will see it survive the COVID 19 Pandemic, but it will be a changed company. If you own a Tourism Business or Hospitality business and have seen similar downturns and are worried about your financial future the first thi...

Often people ask Shaun Stenning how it is that I work so hard and for such a long period of time without breaking down or falling over.  Shaun Stenning 's answer is simple.  Exercise.  I find a good 30-minute run, 1hr Muay Thai Work Out or even a short walk is enough to invigorate me and get me back on track even after the most troubling and horrendous days.  Some people believe coffee is the answer.  Others believe that juices, others below harder drugs.  The reality is if you love what you are doing, you manage the balance in your life, you stay hit and healthy then your drive will come naturally.  For me, I have my good days and my bad days, just like everyone else.  On my bad days, I just look to get through and survive the day, doing exactly what needs to be done urgently and leaving some tasks for the next day when I feel stronger, better and more motivated.  Unfortunately, there is no "Magic Juice" that I Shaun Stenning use, the Juic...
